Survey
TASK
02 CONCEPTUAL DESIGN
After data gathering tasks are complete and the topographic survey work is completed, the team will commence work on generating two (2) refined conceptual designs for the project based on the concept submitted for the grant. This task will also include collaboration, reviews, and discussions with the City as the design progresses. The scope of work in this phase would include:

TASK 2.1 CONCEPTUAL DESIGN
Following site analysis, the design team will prepare two (2) refined conceptual designs based on the original concept plan, including information regarding amenities and material options for new walks and social gathering areas, play surfacing and play equipment, site furnishings, and structures in the project. Stormwater management locations and utility tie-ins will be considered.

Revisions to the original concept layout will reflect changes based on site limitations and opportunities. City selected materials for play equipment and park elements will be incorporated into the space.

TASK 1.2 SCHEDULE UPDATES
Samir (as Project Manager) will create an overall schedule for the project, identifying milestones such as project submittals and meeting dates, including coordination time with the City and design team. This schedule will be updated at each phase of work and communicated to the City.

TASK 1.3 TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEY AND UTILITY RESEARCH AND MAPPING Surveying services in support of this project will include topographic surveying of the existing site, hardscape, and on-site and off-site utilities as needed for points of connection. Surveyors will locate and document surface-visible utility features and improvements, such as signs, utilities, drainage structures, lights, and USA markings. We will review data available including existing maps, GIS data, as built and improvement plans from utility operators. With this information, surveyors will show existing subsurface infrastructure with the project limits. A base file in AutoCAD will be provided to the design team for use in preparing a site base.

TASK 1.4 GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONS
Geotechnical engineers will provide subsurface exploration, completing three to four shallow soil borings throughout the proposed park to depths ranging from 5 to 30 feet. These soil samples will then have laboratory tests performed. A geotechnical report summarizing the results and providing recommendations may be prepared, providing valuable information for use in engineering of walkways and sports court pavements.

TASK 1.5 SITE ANALYSIS & REVIEW EXISTING DATA
This task will begin with a site visit to assess the existing conditions firsthand and to photodocument the current state of the site. We will conduct a thorough analysis of existing elements to inform and guide the design direction. This will include evaluating factors such as access, prevailing winds, sun angles, soil types, local demographics, established circulation patterns, as-built drawings, and existing utilities.

TASK 1.6 PRELIMINARY SITE ASSESSMENT REPORT
A brief report will be prepared to document the findings and analysis discovered in previous tasks.

Coverage shall be at least as broad as Insurance Services Office (ISO) Commercial General Liability coverage form CG 00 01. General liability policies shall be endorsed using ISO form CG 20 10 that the City and its officers, officials, employees, and agents shall be additional insureds under such policies.
 $2,000,000 Automobile Liability combined single limit per accident for bodily injury or property damage at least as broad as ISO Form CA 00 01 for all activities of Consultant arising out of or in connection with Work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for any owned, hired, non-owned or rented vehicles. Automobile Liability policies shall be endorsed to provide that the City and its officers, officials, employees, and agents shall be additional insureds under such policies.  Worker’s Compensation as required by the State of California and $1,000,000 Employer’s Liability per accident for bodily injury or disease. Consultant shall submit to the City, along with the certificate of insurance, a Waiver of Subrogation endorsement in favor of the City, its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers.
 $1,000,000 Professional Liability (Errors & Omissions) per claim and in the aggregate.

Consultant shall maintain professional liability insurance that insures against professional errors and omission that may be made in performing the Services to be rendered in connection with this Agreement. Any policy inception date, continuity date, or retroactive date must be before the effective date of this Agreement, and Consultant agrees to maintain continuous coverage through a period no less than three years after completion of the services required by this Agreement. The cost of such insurance shall be included in Consultant’s bid.

Specifications not Limiting
Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance.
